Hello everyone,

Im new to the forum and look forward to being a long lasting member. I am trying to validate my website, the page i am doing at the moment is http://www.swiftmediauk.co.uk/portfolio.php.

If you go to http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.swiftmediauk.co.uk%2Fportfolio.php&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline you will see that there are only 2 errors to correct, however i havent got a clue how to resolve these 2 errors. is anybody able to offer any advice PLEASE?

Thanks Sooo much.

<meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="false"/>Why do you have that there? Firstly, Smart Tags in IE have been dropped. Secondly, it's "false" (which means "Yes, by all means pepper my site with inappropriate ads and make money at my expense") by default (or would be, if IE were to have Smart Tags).

Simply put, you a have three-level-deep nested-table arrangement there, and you've forgotten to close one of them. :)

Haha... I ran a text on my index page and I've got so many errors that it would take all day to fix them! :p

Oh well... Good thing I'm not doing this for a living huh!
